Beyond WWII: A Game of the American Revolution?
It’s easy to see why video games use WWII so often. It’s the most devastating war in human history, and its sheer scale — spreading across every continent and involving most of the world’s nations — lends itself well to countless FPS’s and RTS’s.
But this year’s Fourth of July, why not reflect on the American Revolution instead? After all, it has plenty of high-stakes scenarios perfect for a video game and offers a much-needed escape from familiar battlegrounds of the 1940’s.
